Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of aluminum bean production technology, and in particular relates to an automated aluminum bean forming tool. Background Technology

[0002] In the aluminum alloy processing industry, aluminum briquettes, as a common metal forming product, are widely used in metallurgy, chemical industry, welding materials, and special alloy preparation. Traditional aluminum briquette forming processes typically employ pouring or dripping methods, where molten aluminum is injected through forming fixtures into a cooling medium, causing it to rapidly cool and solidify to form granular aluminum briquettes.

[0003] In existing forming fixtures used for aluminum briquettes, the molten aluminum readily absorbs hydrogen during the smelting process. Most fixtures lack integrated online degassing mechanisms, resulting in numerous micropores within the briquettes. These pores not only reduce the density and mechanical properties of the briquettes but also increase the gas content of the melt during subsequent remelting, severely impacting the metallurgical quality of downstream products. Furthermore, the cooling and forming process often employs open cooling tank structures, where the briquettes transfer a significant amount of heat to the cooling medium as they solidify in the coolant. To ensure effective cooling, frequent shutdowns are necessary to replace the coolant or replenish the refrigerant, severely disrupting production continuity.

[0004] To address these issues, we provide an automated aluminum bean forming fixture. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automated aluminum bean forming fixture. Through the cooperation of a ventilation mechanism and a replacement mechanism, it solves the problems of existing aluminum bean forming fixtures that cannot remove hydrogen and require shutdown to replace coolant during use, which leads to a decrease in aluminum bean forming quality and production efficiency.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model is an automated aluminum bean forming fixture, including a base plate 1 with mounting holes on its top. Two receiving tanks 2 are horizontally symmetrically distributed on the top of the base plate 1. The receiving tanks 2 are used to hold molten aluminum and serve as containers for temporary storage and preliminary treatment of the molten aluminum. Drip holes 3 are located at the bottom of the receiving tanks 2 to control the molten aluminum to drip into a cooling tank 56, thus forming the aluminum bean. A ventilation mechanism 4 is located on the top of the base plate 1. The ventilation mechanism 4 includes a connecting pipe 41 located on the top of the base plate 1, which connects to an external inert gas source to introduce dehydrogenated gas into the system. A conduit 42 is connected to one side of the connecting pipe 41, and a drive pipe 43 is connected to one side of the conduit 42. The conduit 44 has one end away from the drive pipe 43 located at the bottom of the container 2. The conduit 42 delivers inert gas to the drive pipe 43, which is a gas flow channel and has an internal drive structure that uses airflow to drive turbine blades 47. The conduit 44 ultimately passes the inert gas into the molten aluminum to remove hydrogen. The bottom of the connecting pipe 41 is equipped with a switching mechanism 5, which includes a motor 51 fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, a first drive gear 52 fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 51, a rotating rod 53 rotatably connected to the top of the base plate 1, the bottom of the rotating rod 53 being rotatably connected to the base plate 1 via a bearing, and a second drive gear 54 fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod 53. The first drive gear 52 and the second drive gear 54 mesh with each other.

[0028] Example 2

The drive rod 45 transmits the rotational motion of the turbine blade 47 to... The first bevel gear 48 and the support plate 46 support the drive rod 45 to ensure its stable rotation. The turbine blades 47 are driven to rotate by the airflow, converting the kinetic energy of the gas into mechanical energy. The ventilation mechanism 4 also includes a stirring frame 49 rotatably connected to the bottom of the container 2. The bottom of the stirring frame 49 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the container 2 via a bearing. A second bevel gear 410 is fixedly connected to the top of the stirring frame 49. The first bevel gear 48 and the second bevel gear 410 mesh with each other. The first bevel gear 48 converts the horizontal rotational motion into a vertical direction, driving the second bevel gear 410. The stirring frame 49 rotates in the molten aluminum. Stirring promotes full contact between the gas and molten aluminum, improving hydrogen removal efficiency. The second bevel gear 410 receives power from the first bevel gear 48, driving the stirring frame 49 to rotate. The switching mechanism 5 also includes a connecting frame 55 fixedly connected to one side of the rotating rod 53, and four cooling tanks 56 fixedly connected to one side of the connecting frame 55. These cooling tanks 56 are evenly distributed in a circle on the top of the base plate 1. The motor 51 provides power to drive the rotation and switching of the cooling tanks 56. The cooling tanks 56 hold the cooling medium and receive dripping molten aluminum, cooling it to form aluminum beans. A support frame 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the receiving tank 2. The bottom of the support frame 6... A cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to one side of the support frame 6, and a sealing plate 8 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 7. The top of the sealing plate 8 is in close contact with the container 2. The sealing plate 8 closes or opens the drip hole 3 to control the timing of the aluminum liquid dripping. A fixed rod 9 is rotatably connected to the top of the rotating rod 53. The bottom of the connecting pipe 41 is fixedly connected to the fixed rod 9. The bottom of the fixed rod 9 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 53 through a bearing. A connecting rod 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed rod 9. The connecting rod 10 is fixedly connected to the container 2. A drain pipe is connected to one side of the cooling tank 56. A pipe cap is threaded onto the surface of the drain pipe.

[0030] The working principle of this invention is as follows: First, molten aluminum is poured into the container tank 2. External inert gas enters the ventilation mechanism 4 through the connecting pipe 41, and finally enters the molten aluminum through the conduit 42, drive pipe 43, and through pipe 44. During the gas flow, the turbine blades 47 are driven to rotate, which in turn drives the first bevel gear 48 to rotate through the drive rod 45. The first bevel gear 48 meshes with the second bevel gear 410, driving the stirring frame 49 to rotate and stir in the molten aluminum, promoting full contact between hydrogen and inert gas and their discharge.

[0031] After hydrogen removal is completed, cylinder 7 is activated, which moves sealing plate 8 and opens drip hole 3. The aluminum liquid drips into the cooling tank 56 below, where it quickly cools and solidifies to form aluminum beads. When the coolant needs to be replaced due to heat absorption, motor 51 is started. Through the meshing of first drive gear 52 and second drive gear 54, the rotating rod 53, connecting frame 55 and cooling tank 56 are rotated as a whole, moving the used cooling tank 56 out of the working position and turning the new cooling tank 56 into the liquid receiving position, thus achieving continuous production without stopping the machine.

[0032] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
